## Job description

## About Us

Slope is a fast-growing fintech company transforming B2B commerce through AI-powered embedded lending. Backed by $78M in equity capital by Sam Altman, Y Combinator and others, and over $200M in warehouse facilities from J.P. Morgan Chase and others, we’ve partnered with global brands like Amazon, Walmart, IKEA, Alibaba, Samsung —and we’re just getting started. Our product and business model have evolved significantly, and we’re looking for a hands-on, execution-focused accounting professional to join us during this exciting growth phase.

## The Role

We’re seeking a self-sufficient, detail-oriented Senior Accountant or Accounting Manager to own accounting and help run day-to-day finance operations at Slope. You’ll lead the monthly close, annual audit, and externally managed tax processes, while keeping cash reconciliations, remittances, and financial reporting accurate and on schedule. You’ll also support borrowing-base and warehouse operations in partnership with capital markets. This is a full-time, hands-on individual contributor role reporting directly to the CEO / co-founder, with close collaboration across finance, operations, engineering, and data science.

## Responsibilities

- Own and execute the monthly close in QuickBooks, including journal entries, account reconciliations, and timely financial statements
- Run daily cash reconciliations across operating, collection, and lender accounts; track restricted and unrestricted cash, pending settlements, and amounts owed to bank partners and loan buyers
- Prepare remittance reports, bank transfers, and payments for required approvals; monitor settlement and reconcile completed cash movements
- Support borrowing-base calculations and certificates, loan pledges, draws and paydowns, and monthly servicer reporting in partnership with capital markets; track deadlines, facility utilization, and exceptions
- Coordinate loan-sale settlement and loan ownership updates with capital markets and engineering so loan records, cash movements, and partner reporting stay aligned
- Lead annual financial audits (currently with RSM), including preparation, supporting schedules, auditor requests, reporting, and financial statement drafting support
- Manage tax workflows and coordinate with external tax advisors
- Own accounting processes and documentation; take over existing workflows through a structured handoff and maintain clear procedures, reporting calendars, approval steps, and backup coverage
- Maintain accurate loan, revenue, equity, and stock compensation accounting; reconcile financing fees, charge-offs and recoveries, warehouse interest, and bank partner fees to the general ledger
- Engage support when technical accounting issues arise (equity, warrants, revenue treatment, etc.)
- Improve accounting and finance operations workflows through practical automation, stronger controls, and scalable reporting
- Partner with engineering and data science to reconcile loan tapes and repayment data to bank activity, general ledger balances, and warehouse reports; investigate and resolve discrepancies
- Prepare financial and cash metrics for investor updates and lender reporting, and maintain audit-ready schedules that support financial diligence and reconcile to reported actuals

## What We’re Looking For

- Strong hands-on accounting experience, including ownership of monthly close and reconciliations. Public accounting experience is preferred; fintech lending or startup experience is a plus.
- Experience running or supporting external audits from end to end
- Hands-on expertise with QuickBooks, monthly close, financial statement preparation, and technical accounting, plus the ability to execute recurring cash reconciliations, payment workflows, and operational reporting
- Familiarity with loan accounting, equity accounting, and stock comp
- Startup mindset: comfortable taking over existing processes quickly, managing daily and monthly deadlines, documenting work, and escalating discrepancies with autonomy
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills; no ego, low politics
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting or Finance; CPA preferred

Bonus Points

- Experience in fintech lending or revenue accounting for complex financial products, loans etc.
- Experience with warehouse lending or forward-flow operations, including borrowing-base reports, loan pledges, settlements, and remittances
- Strong documentation and process improvement mindset, hands on leader

Location & Workstyle

- Flexible location (we have a San Francisco office and also open to remote).
- Small, collegial team where you’ll meet both founders and cross-functional colleagues during the process

## Benefits

- Competitive compensation and meaningful equity
- 99% employer-paid health insurance
- High ownership, high-impact environment

## About Slope

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Slope is a B2B payments and embedded credit platform that uses AI-powered underwriting to simplify order‑to‑cash and give businesses access to flexible financing.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series C, total raised ~$127 M in equity plus debt facilities)
- **Headquarters**: San Francisco, California, United States
- **Founded**: 2021
- **Founders**: Lawrence Lin Murata (CEO) and Alice Deng (CPO)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Financial Services / Fintech (B2B payments, embedded credit, cash‑flow underwriting)
- **Target customers**: B2B – SMBs to enterprise (works with marketplaces like Walmart, Alibaba, IKEA, Samsung)
- **Mission / Purpose**: To digitize the B2B economy by modernizing the offline, manual order‑to‑cash process.

## Products & Services
- **Slope Pay Later**: A B2B buy‑now‑pay‑later solution embedded directly into e‑commerce, invoicing, and billing platforms (e.g., Walmart Marketplace, Alibaba.com). Buyers get net‑60/90 terms with decisions powered by real‑time AI underwriting.
- **SlopeScore**: A cash flow underwriting score that analyzes bank transaction data (income, rent, debt obligations) to provide a more inclusive credit assessment for lenders – deployed on platforms like Walmart, Alibaba, IKEA, and Samsung.
- **Embedded Credit Lines**: Lines of credit for inventory purchasing at checkout; e.g., a new program for Amazon Sellers backed by a J.P. Morgan credit facility.
- **Slope TransFormer**: A proprietary LLM trained specifically to understand the language of banks, used to improve underwriting and risk decisions.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not publicly disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding ~$127 M (equity and debt combined, per CB Insights; another source cites $252 M including debt facilities). Annual Revenue estimated at ~$1.5 M (LinkedIn estimate).
- **Notable Investors**: J.P. Morgan Payments, Y Combinator, Union Square Ventures, Monashees, Notable Capital, Jack Altman, Silicon Valley Bank
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Partnerships with IKEA U.S., Alibaba.com, Samsung, and Amazon (new line of credit for Amazon Sellers)
  - Recognized by OpenAI for surpassing 10 B tokens processed through its API
  - Developed Slope TransFormer, the first LLM trained on banking language
  - Headcount growth: ~26 employees (LinkedIn) but job postings are increasing; YC listed 16 in initial batch, indicating steady scaling

## Competitive Advantages
- **Real‑time AI underwriting** that uses transaction data (bank feeds, payment history) rather than traditional credit files, enabling approval of thin‑file and underserved borrowers.
- **Deep integrations** with major B2B marketplaces (Walmart, Alibaba, IKEA, Samsung) provide a unique distribution and data moat.
- **SlopeScore** and **Slope TransFormer** are proprietary assets that combine cash‑flow intelligence with NLP tailored to financial institutions.
- **J.P. Morgan backing** provides both credibility and capital for credit facilities.

## Strategic Focus
- Expand embedded financing across more B2B platforms and marketplaces
- Deepen the use of AI and LLMs for credit risk assessment and automated underwriting
- Cover the full order‑to‑cash lifecycle (beyond just financing) to digitize B2B commerce end‑to‑end
- Continue to partner with large retailers and banks to scale SlopeScore as a standard cash‑flow underwriting tool

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: “People first”, “Ownership”, and “Growth mindset” are core values. The team is small (~30 people) and values autonomy and personal growth.
- **Remote / Hybrid**: Remote‑friendly for US‑based candidates; office in San Francisco (600 Harrison St). YC listing specifies “Remote (US) – any (new grads ok)”.
- **Engineering / AI focus**: Opportunity to work on cutting‑edge AI (LLMs, underwriting models) with real‑world impact on millions of transactions.
- **Notable perks**: Not explicitly listed, but role descriptions indicate competitive compensation (e.g., Senior Backend Engineer $95K‑$130K) and the chance to work with a high‑caliber team (ex‑Brex, Nauto, Dropbox, SoFi).
- **Growth trajectory**: Fast‑growing startup with strong partnerships and J.P. Morgan support; employees can have outsized impact.
